An Impossible Impostor by Deanna Raybourn

So to Hathaway House on the atmospheric Dartmoor they go and they meet all the principle family members. They have been asked to visit a family associated with Sir Hugo to verify that the man who stumbles onto the estate grounds was, in fact, who he claimed to be, the missing oldest son, and not some imposter there for his own nefarious purposes. Veronica does adore her detecting adventures, but if she had known what would be the result of this latest case that the head of Special Branch, Sir Hugo Montgomerie, presented them, she might very well have been as cautious as Stoker in approaching cases. On the Hunt for a Tasmanian Tiger and a Long-Lost Hathaway In this seventh installment of a series that must be read in order, Veronica and Stoker are on their way back from a tiny Alpine kingdom’s royal wedding and looking forward to their usual work categorizing and repairing specimens for their patron, the Earl of Rosemorran, who plans to open a museum. “I do not care for infants, and even if I did, I should not care for this one.” (Loc 71) The Impossible Impostor is their next story in the Veronica Speedwell series and I eagerly consumed it. Sparks fly with their scintillating dialogue and spirits draw in their readers and make it an irksome delight to have to wait for each new release.

A winning combo occurred when talented authoress, Deanna Raybourn, paired Veronica, and Stoker, two of the most eccentric individuals of the Victorian Age.
